Mike, re: Bill's situation, where he wants the sphere to start off normal, then seamlessly turn into a particle explosion — yes, I know that particle status is a switch, and that an object either is or isn't "particle-ized" . <Sorry B^)> However, what's to stop our friend from defining the particles as _a single triangle_? Perhaps there's a particle size/fit option that would make the triangular particles look & feel <g> just like the faces on the non-particle-ized sphere? Blaq!
